The "sudo" is not required and will cause this to fail because you are
running the command as the "wrong" user.

Yes. Do the first two, to set the environment variables and prepare to
run either generate_image.py or generate_tiles.py

[OSM-dev] Loading a 0.6 osm file into postgres with osmosis
Hi. I successfully used osmosis to load the cuurent map of germany into the postgres schema from Brett Henderson: http://gweb.bretth.com/apidb06-pgsql-latest.sql Here is a short Howto: 1. I split the above skript into 2 parts at the COPY statements. 2. I ran the first part to create the schema without indexes and foreign keys. 3. I ran (the following is an example, adapt the parameters) bin/osmosis --read-xml-0.6 file=~/Desktop/download/germany.osm.bz2 --write-apidb-0.6 host=localhost database=osm1 user=osm password= populateCurrentTables=yes validateSchemaVersion=no 4. When osmosis started to copy into the current_* tables, things slowed down (nearly no disk writes, lots of reads). So I added the primary keys on nodes, node_tags, ways, way_nodes and way_tags and copying ran fast afterwards. 5. I ran the second part of the schema script creating the missing indexes and FKs. Done in about 6 hours. Sincerely, Joachim ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
[OSM-dev] bad pngs from mod_tile / renderd & meta files
Hi, I am having a problem in that the pngs being generated and returned by my apache & renderd & mapnik process are not "proper" pngs in that they are rejected by various file viewers as being malformed. I have compiled, built and run renderd against the latest mapnik svn. I have configured apache and renderd gets invoked correctly to generate the meta files. Typical renderd output is: from the request: http://10.0.1.198/osm_tiles2/1/0/0.png I see the renderd output: Render fd(6) xml(Default), z(1), x(0), y(0) META TILE 1 0-1 0-1 DONE TILE Default 1 0-1 0-1 Produced .meta: /var/lib/mod_tile/Default/1/0/0/0/0/0.meta Furthermore, my postgres is being queried properly. Running generate_image.py (ie, testing mapnik / osm.xml) works and produces beautiful pngs. Any ideas or tips where to start debugging this one?

Are you trying to use the .meta file as a png or the file returned via the URL? The .meta file is an archive of 64 individual tile pngs you will need to unpack them using the "convert_meta" utility if you want to access them directly. This utility needed a minor update to add support for the multiple layers which I just added to SVN so do an update before you try to use it. $ ./convert_meta -u Converting tiles in layer Default Produced tile: /var/lib/mod_tile/Default/5/0/0/0/0/128.png Produced tile: /var/lib/mod_tile/Default/5/0/0/0/0/129.png Produced tile: /var/lib/mod_tile/Default/5/0/0/0/0/130.png Produced tile: /var/lib/mod_tile/Default/5/0/0/0/0/131.png Produced tile: /var/lib/mod_tile/Default/5/0/0/0/0/132.png Produced tile: /var/lib/mod_tile/Default/5/0/0/0/0/133.png ...
